Lincoln is a sweet dog who does not get a long with our other dog and it's not fair to keep them both gated to specific areas of our house. He is about 6.5 years old. Mini-labradoodle. Cream/white super fluffy fur. Loves to play fetch. While he graduated obedience school as a puppy he does not walk on a leash well and will need retrained. Can sit, stay, lay, and shake. While doodles aren't supposed to shed he does as he is a first line. His shots are just out of date. Neutered and microchipped.

Story

Riley is the sweetest boy! He was found as a stray but then reclaimed by his owner who then decided she could not care for him and surrendered him to the shelter. Our rescue was contacted to see if we had space for this adorable senior who should not be spending time in a shelter at this point in his life. His foster mom reports that he has lots of energy and loves to go for walks and explore. Riley does love food and will help himself when he is able... This boy likes other dogs and is just so happy and care free. Riley is visually impaired and also does not hear the best but he learns quickly and will make the most amazing companion! Riley would like a home where he is treated like a king and the center of attention in his golden years. Everyone who meets him falls in love with him. Home visit and adoption donation required.

Pachi

Australian Kelpie Mutt

Female, 2 yrs 1 mo

Columbia, PA

Size

(when grown) Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)

Details

Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

This adorable, spunky, silly girl is heartbroken because she has absolutely zero interest from anyone wanting to adopt her. She has now set the record for the longest dog in our foster program. Pachi has been with us for a year and a half and prior to our rescue she had been in a shelter for several months. Pachi is the cutest little dog with the coolest ears. She is much smaller than she appears in her photos. (Under 30lbs). Pachi is a true gem, and we can't explain how lucky her person will be once they find each other. She's shown incredible growth but needs a home with structure and routine to continue to grow. Pachi finds joy in the simple pleasures of life, like chasing a toy or curling up on the couch and loves to share blueberries and bananas for breakfast with her foster mom. Pachi is most comfortable with women but is open to anyone with a soft side. She would do best with an adult-only home, or with older children. Pachi likes to be the center of attention, so no other pets. She is not a fan of felines. Pachi prefers a home with a fenced in yard to run around in. We know that her person/people are out there, but we need your help to find this deserving girl her much deserved forever home. Please share. We would like Pachi to stay within Central PA or if the perfect home is found we would consider someone further away. “Dogs have a way of finding the people who need them and filling the emptiness we didn’t ever know we had.” - Thom Jones

Story

Meet Wyatt! This handsome chow chow was found on the streets of Harrisburg and taken to the shelter. Our rescue was contacted to see if we had room in our rescue as this breed does not do well in a shelter situation. One of our amazing fosters stepped up and this lucky boy is now enjoying himself in the fresh air and sunshine today. A huge thank you to Paula for helping Wyatt on his journey to a better life! Wyatt is not your typical chow as he warmed up to Paula and friends quickly. She reports that he enjoys being brushed and even fell asleep. He is a quiet observer of dogs and people passing by her home. We will know more about this sweet boy as he settles into his foster home. If you are interested in adopting Wyatt please send us a message for an application. Breed experience recommended but not required. Home visit and adoption donation required.
